FAQs Referenced in Script

1. Q: Are nipple covers better than sticky bras for working out?

A: Yes. Sticky bras are restrictive and shift during high-intensity movement. Go Nipless nipple covers are thin, stay locked in place, and actually strengthen with sweat. You won't feel them moving during burpees or cardio.

2. Q: Can you shower in nipple covers?

A: You can shower with them on, but most people remove them, shower, dry skin, and reapply. Takes 30 seconds and you reuse the same pair multiple times.

3. Q: What's the difference between matte and glossy under gym lighting?

A: Matte silicone absorbs light (invisible). Glossy silicone reflects light, creating a visible shine under light-colored tanks under fluorescent gym lighting. Matte is the only choice for workouts in bright environments.

4. Q: Do nipple covers move during high-intensity cardio?

A: No. Go Nipless stays locked in place through burpees, mountain climbers, rowing, sprints. The adhesive strengthens with sweat, so the more you move, the stronger the bond.
